[FreeDNS] Nameserver not found error

["Richard Powell" <richard@xxxxxxx>]

Hey all,

 

I recently tried to register the domain lich.za.net through .za.net and am having problems doing so.

 

I am almost certain I’ve configured my nameservers correctly as I’m using the same configuration method that has always worked (and still works) for all my .co.za, .us and .com domain names. However, when I send through the registration application the system returns an error saying it cant find either of my nameservers??

 

My nameservers are: ns1.povs.us and ns2.povs.us

 

A dig on ns1.povs.us provides the following (works on ns2.povs.us as well):

 

home root # dig @ns1.povs.us lich.za.net

 

; <<>> DiG 9.2.2 <<>> @ns1.povs.us lich.za.net

;; global options:  printcmd

I just can’t work out what the problem is, it must be something silly!

 

I appreciate your help,

 

Kind regards,
